Trapeze Group Introduces VEO Transportation

CLEVELAND, OHIO--(Marketwired - Oct. 22, 2013) - Trapeze Group, a leading provider of transportation technology solutions, announces the launch of VEO Transportation, its new enterprise solution for K-12 student transportation.

Unlike other routing and scheduling applications on the market today, VEO Transportation features fully integrated, multi-term calendars which provide transportation departments more control over daily routing and scheduling operations. This includes an extensive audit function which chronicles all historical information, enabling districts to retrieve student, stop, route, and attendance area data for any point in time at the click of the mouse.

"Between complicated custody arrangements with multiple pick-up and drop-off locations to varying program attendance on a daily or weekly basis, getting the right students to the right places on the right days has become increasingly complex," commented Steven McKinley, operations manager with the Trapeze School division. "Transportation departments historically have not had a way to effectively deal with circumstances like these. Utilizing the calendar-based functionality VEO Transportation employs, they now have a tool for easily managing each student's schedule and proactively responding to changing needs."

Also designed to manage the requirements of both regular and special needs transport in one consolidated program, this thin-client solution facilitates improved efficiencies, processes and service levels.

"With school budgets tightening, transportation departments are under increased pressure to operate more efficiently. VEO Transportation provides districts the tool to optimize routes and streamline processes, translating directly to reduced costs. We are confident VEO Transportation can demonstrate significant ROI for school districts whether they are currently utilizing a routing solution or not," added McKinley.

With the full capability to integrate Trapeze operations management solutions, on-board mobile device technologies, automatic vehicle location (AVL) software, and 3rd party student information systems, VEO Transportation offers school districts a comprehensive, single-source solution to address all areas of their operations.
